The Lycan Pack's Luna

Chapter 29

Cassandra's POV

Peace.

I smile as I made my way towards the ballroom. My hands were itching to play the piano since morning. It's weird isn't it? How even though you hope things go your way yet still it's a surprise when they do. Walking up the staircase I let my thoughts wander back to last night's events.

--------------------------------Flashback-------------------------------------

"Oh god!" Sophie stood up all of a sudden, her eyes wide and look of utter shock displayed on her face. My heart picked up speed as well.

" Sophie? What's wrong dear?" Amara got up as well and moved towards her. Damon pulled her closer and rubbed her arms in soothing manner.

"Alex and the army–" A loud sound of sad howl coming from outside stopped her in mid sentence and we all stilled. Dread filled my whole body and I clench my eyes shut.

No, no, no.

"Alexander and the army, they're... coming back."

My eyebrows furrowed, slowly opening my eyes I looked at Sophie. She was smiling, all signs of stress gone from her face.

"Seriously? You just HAD to give me a heart attack?" Placing my right hand on top of chest I breathed deeply. Damon and Amara both had straight faces before shaking their heads at Sophie.

"Come on guys! It was a good joke."

-------------------------End of Flashback-----------------------------------------

It was not a good joke.

Sophie said they'll arrive sometime in the evening. I smiled as my eyes made contact with one of the helpers, nodding my head at her greeting. Pulling my hair in a bun as move ascend the stairs, I felt Lia getting uneasy. I really needed to go on a run.

The amount of stress all this queen work gave me is tiring in so many ways. Stretching the sleeves of my black turtle neck, I put my hands in my black jeans pocket. Winter was almost upon us.

Opening the ballroom doors, I stepped in awe of the place. No matter how many times I come here, it manages to stun me every time. The sound of my footsteps echoed throughout the ballroom. Sitting down on the piano seat, I slowly let my fingers wander over the keys. Soft sounds filled the whole room. Closing my eyes, I started to play. Though this time I don't sing.(A/N Play the video now.)

Slowly, my fingers play the tune which was inside my head for a long time. I find myself getting lost in the music. Memories of my mate flash through my closed eyes, and I feel my eyes getting watery. I sway to the music lightly.

 I don't stop.

"And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime,

And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine."

I don't stop when an aura surrounds me.

"And I see forever in your eyes,

I feel okay when I see you smile, smile."

I don't stop when the familiar scent engulfs me.

"Cause it gets so hard to breathe
When you're looking at me, I've never felt so alive and free
When you're looking at me, I've never felt so happy."

I don't stop at the sound of footsteps.

"Dandelion, into the wind you go
Won't you let my darling know?"
